Frequently Asked Questions

The fretwork is generally good for the price point; some minor leveling or polishing might improve playability further, but it's not a dealbreaker.
The tremolo is functional, but budget-friendly; expect slight tuning instability with aggressive use, a simple setup adjustment can improve it.
Basswood offers a more balanced and even tone with less emphasis on low-end growl; it's brighter and more versatile for a range of styles.
